12/28/1835, Bushnell FL: during the second Seminole War, Maj Francis L
Dade, 7 officers & 100 men killed by Seminole soldiers under sub-chief
John Jumper (Otee-Emathla)
Lawless men, they were to blame.
From the Georgia line they came.
Burning, killing, stealing slaves,
From the Seminole Indian braves.
